VHM TOP, "So Very hard..."

Since this is a typical Foghead request list, I'm not expecting any bustouts.

Yeah, all are good songs so far, but nothing terribly deep either. I'm in agreement with Dave--TOP gets BOS so far.

and deservedly so!

But this the second time in a month that someone sent him a long list of songs and got 10 of them. I couldn't even get ONE the last time I made a b-day request, which is why I haven't tried since.

My thoughts as well.

Any guesses as to the vinyl? Brownsville Station sounded pretty "warm" to me. Or maybe I Got a Name? (Possible bustout?)

the Croce has appeared once, so it may be the closest to a rarity we get. BOS from me.

I have that on a 45 somewhere, so I was wondering the same.  The B-side is a hysterical song called "The Martian Boogie"

This is not shaping up to be all that typical after all.  So far only Billy Preston had appeared more than thrice previously...and any day when you get to use the word 'thrice' in a sentence is a good day!

Yep, if the birthday girl picked all of these, then she did better than I'd have given her credit for. A heavy dose of 70s R&B--nice!

indeed, this is a not-so-typical Foghead we're dealing with here.  VHM "Wildflower", another Summer-of-'73 flashback for me, and an early David Foster composition, iirc.

Well this is yer bustout, bub!  Since you claim to knwo the composer I assume you can ID the artist, 'cuz I'm coming up with a blank even though my memory of hearing this as a 10-yr-old has me singing along with the lyrics.

Skylark -- white Canadians, as I recall. Tho' there was an R&B cover version -- New Birth, maybe?

Shockingly, even "Drift Away" only shows up four previous times.  Is there a 4 times equivalent of 'thrice'?  If not we should coin one.

"quice"?

and indeed New Birth is the R&B "Wildflower" cover I was thinking of --even Kenny Rogers did it on a David Foster-produced album in the '90s. Here's Skylark:
